While the chances of finding the NBA’s next star lay typically in the first round, many teams, including the Charlotte Hornets, are taking the second round of the NBA Draft more seriously thanks to some major steals in recent years.
Draymond Green, Nikola Jokic, Khris Middleton and Josh Richardson are four examples of second round picks that have developed into stars in the NBA. You can find a ton of talent at any point in the draft.
The Hornets had the 36th and 52nd pick in Thursday’s NBA Draft, and used those picks wisely.
